WULF, funny you say that...i did just that last weekend. Boredom set in and I got out the two lenses and tested them both in a well lit area and a low light setting.
In both cases I manually focused and found the prime to be the much better shot of the two. The 18-55 kit lens came out a bit soft and the low light setting it was really inferior.
I think it showed me alot about the importance of glass. I knew good glass makes a difference but comparing the two really but the importance on good glass as oppose to getting a better camera. I was planning on a D300 or possible a D200 and a lens this spring but now and thinking along the lines of replacing my kit lens and 55-200 with some much better glass.
